HC Deb 23 October 1918 vol 110 c763
28. Mr. LEES-SMITH

asked the Under-Secretary for War whether he is now able to make a statement as to the number of soldiers who have been sentenced by court-martial for concealing venereal disease in cases arising out of a complaint by a woman that she had been infected by the soldier?

Mr. MACPHERSON

As I stated in reply to a similar question by my hon. Friend on the 13th June last, I regret that this information is not available.

Mr. LEES-SMITH

In view of the facts, does the right hon. Gentleman still maintain his statement that there is equality of treatment between soldiers under the King's Regulations and women under Regulation 40D?

Mr. MACPHERSON

I do.
